Cheryl Miller is not holding back when it comes to Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White.

The women's basketball Hall of Famer recently expressed her frustration with the pair's comments about the WNBA.

Speaking to TMZ Sports at LAX on Tuesday, Miller made it clear she's not giving them much thought.

"I'm not giving them, those two, in particular, a whole lot of thought, because there's outsiders looking to hijack our network," she said.

"It's horrible energy. It's horrible energy."

Miller added that she would have welcomed both players at a WNBA game before the controversy, but now she's no longer interested.

"I would have loved to see these two sitting courtside, you know, watching the game 30 years ago, 20 years ago, 5 years ago, 5 minutes ago.

But now all of a sudden, y'all got a collective think tank? Man, shut that noise up."

The hoops legend says her focus is solely on the court, especially with the regular season winding down.

"All I'm focused on, for real, for real, 100%, is 13 games remaining in The Dub. Playoffs are around the corner.

You got spots four, five, six, seven, and eight battling to get home court position. That's what my focus is about."

Miller acknowledges the transgender issue in the league will need to be addressed eventually, but not now. "I would definitely let cooler heads prevail right now," she said.

"We want to protect everyone.

And we don't want to exclude anyone, but I just think we all have to sit down in the off-season and collectively get our heads and minds around this issue.

Obviously, it's a hotbed."

She also downplayed the recent controversy over DiJonai Carrington's hard foul on Sophie Cunningham, saying it's been blown out of proportion.

"It's not a fiasco. It was a hard foul.

She was ejected for it. She wasn't suspended the next game, so play on."

Despite the noise, Miller sees a silver lining: "Because it's all eyes on the W."
